Distinct and shared B cell responses of tuberculosis patients and their household contacts
This study was aimed at identifying the B cell responses which could distinguish between ‘latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI)’ and active TB disease. Study subjects were smear-positive TB patients (n = 54) and their disease-free household contacts (HHCs, n = 120). The sera were used for determinati...
